Big Brother set the housemates some footy skills to learn for today's task, to coincide with the European Championships.

Housemates had an hour to master keepy-uppy, heading, dribbling, chipping and diving.

With a pitch marked out in the garden the housemates got practising. Victor volunteered for keepy-uppy but complained the balls were too soft for him to be able to show off his silky ball skills.

Shell and Jason practised heading to each other. They need to be able to do so five times to pass the task.

While everyone got on with honing their abilities, Nadia fixed her hair.

Inexplicably, Stuart tried to talk Ahmed into chipping the ball due to his earlier success with dildos. Whether that talent will transfer to the football pitch remains to be seen. Daniel looks like being his chipping partner.

Big Brother also provided eight cones to test the housemates' dribbling skills. Vanessa, with her hair in fetching bunches, tried to elude the cones with the ball. Then Nadia joined her, without any of the flair we've come to expect from Portuguese football.

Marco begged to dive over a feather and roll around holding his leg as he claimed he wasn't gifted at the beautiful game. No one seemed to argue.
